If you have watched Formula 1 in the last few seasons, you probably saw a common rope from each team’s opponents.
Black.
The reason? Teams turn into a bare carbon fiber, not painted surfaces, as a tool to save weight in cars. New rules implemented in the 2022 season, left the teams to delete the cars to meet the heavy and minimum weight requirements than ever.
The color and black, was naked carbon fiber.
Prior to the 2025 F1 season, Mercedes first announced an initiative. According to the team, the continuous carbon fiber has never started a program using anything that has never been made in F1.
In a specific point of view, we will adapt to the compositions of 2025 formula 1 season, and in the 2025 formula will match our competition cars during the 1 season.
Carbon (fiber) composites, the highest performance and security, which help us reach the level of levels, are about 75% of our car materials. In these materials, innovations provide an important opportunity to reduce our car’s carbon to achieve net zero in all areas by 2040.
According to the team, “(W) aim to demonstrate the same technically required requirements as traditional materials such as FIA, and continuous carbon (fiber) composites as traditional materials.”
There are two projects to create a second for the elegant to shut down the fibers themselves and fibers of the mercedes, durable carbon fiber, fibers themselves and fibers.
A continuous carbon (fiber) composite, both components – (fiber) and resin system – should be resolved. Cooperation with the supply chain, the team has two separate projects to apply to the resin system and a carbon (fibers) by the end of this year.
Mercedes believes that technology can be spread outside the F1 grid.
In Formula 1, our work on this pioneer-resistant material projects provides an important opportunity to remove this innovative from motorsport. Manages the performance of innovation, and these developments can form industry futures from aviation and aerospace technical performance.
The principle of the Mercedes F1 team welcomed Toto Wolff.
“You create progress when you combine performance and innovation. I’m proud to lead a group that solves the problem that solves the sustainable change,” Wolff said. “I thank our partners for the material innovation that allows you to try these materials.
The 2025 season season starts with the Australian Grand Prix next week.
